No.1, a Chinese manufacturer known for its rather accurate copies of popular flagships like the Galaxy S4, Galaxy Note 3, and the iPhone 5c, are claiming to be already working on a possible Galaxy S5 clone...

If you are looking for cheap replacement phone between contracts, they aren't that bad. However, in the U.S. you don't even get good 3G speed with those clones. I wouldn't mind using them if I could at least get HSPA+ at all time. But I still like rocking my Nexus 4 :D

Yup... they take out the R&D aspect out of the equation and make profit out of selling cheap phones that looks alike the real deal. From growing in Taiwan, I have seen so many clone merchandises in my life. I wouldn't use any clone phone myself, but if I am in the situation of being low income and would still like a decent phone, they might be my choices.

That's a slap in the face to Samsung. Releasing their flagship before they do thru a clone, thus raining on their parade. Samsung should sue the bricks off em. That's plain wrong, if this is true it could cause issues for Samsung...not fair IMHO. Now this is something you mos def sue over.

Let's remember there are supposed to be 2 variants of S5, a premium and a plastic one. So maybe this is a copy of the regular version. I still don't like it looks exactly the same as S4 but bessel-less. The back is not bad but looks like cheap plastic. Again.

C'mon, someone copy and pasted an S4, cut the edges of the bezel and said voila, that's the S5, totally unimaginative. Plus the square camera ain't gonna make it like that in it's final form, another tacky copy and paste job from the cloning fellas from China.
